Accelerations of the vehicle and mass m 2 , when pulleys are light and all surfaces are frictionless, are

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
If mass m 1 travels s, m 2 travels by s/2.
∴ ∴ if acceleration of m 1 is a, then acceleration of mass m 2 is
a
Here T = m 1 a and m 2 g – 2T = m 2 
Solving a =
